Chapter 98 Will Obito die?
Click...click...click-click...
Kakashi was resting against the wall when he suddenly heard a sound like joints moving. He opened his eyes alertly, took out a kunai with his right hand, and thrust it in the direction from above.
A flexible tube appeared above Kakashi's head, about to launch a sneak attack, but was immediately pinned to the wall by a kunai.
"There's an enemy! Get up! I'm going to check on Obito!"
Kakashi shouted and immediately jumped onto the ground, but he didn't see Obito.
"Oops!"
The enemy had found their hiding place, and Obito had not only failed to raise the alarm, but had also disappeared. Kakashi felt that Obito was likely in grave danger.
Since the start of the war, many of the people Kakashi knew have died in battle. Is he going to witness the death of another comrade today?
At that moment, five shuriken suddenly shot out from the sand. Kakashi retreated continuously to dodge them. Just then, a snake-shaped puppet darted out of the sand.
After the puppet snake crawled out, it grew arms made of four joints from its upper body and then charged towards Kakashi.
Kakashi used kunai to defend against the puppet's attack, but the puppet snake's four arms could attack simultaneously, making it difficult for Kakashi to defend.
Moreover, the puppet's entire body can be equipped with various mechanisms to shoot out needles, poison gas, and other attacks, making its methods of attack impossible to defend against.
Kakashi managed to hold out for a moment, but was then sent flying by a single punch from the puppet snake.
"No, if we can't find the puppeteer's main body, this battle is a complete waste of time! We must destroy this puppet first!"
Having made up his mind, Kakashi formed hand seals, gathering a ball of Lightning Release chakra in his right hand, and a huge roar of lightning resounded throughout the desert.
The puppeteer, hiding in the shadows, widened his eyes instantly upon seeing Kakashi's Lightning Release ninjutsu.
"What kind of ninjutsu is this? My puppet can't withstand this explosive chakra at all. Luckily, I have a hostage. Hehe, Konoha ninja, let me see just how much friendship you have!"
Under the puppeteer's control, the puppet snake's chest shell opened, revealing the unconscious Obito inside.
"What?! Obito!"
Seeing this, Kakashi, who was moving at high speed, was taken aback and abruptly changed his attack target, only using Chidori to shatter one of the puppet's arms.
"Hehehe, you've used such a powerful ninjutsu, you don't have much chakra left. Die!"
Seeing how much Kakashi cared about the hostage, the puppeteer felt confident of victory and kept attacking Kakashi, intending to use Obito as a shield if Kakashi dared to retaliate.
Kakashi was filled with rage but had no way to do anything, putting him in a very passive position. He could only observe carefully, hoping to find the puppeteer's location through the chakra threads so he could launch a counterattack.
"Kyosuke, get up! There are enemies!"
When Rin heard Kakashi's voice, she immediately got up, turned her head and saw that Kyosuke was still asleep, so she immediately shook Kyosuke awake.
Damn it, I was careless this time. If someone hadn't woken me up, I might be dead.
Before entering a dream, always make sure it's safe.
Kyosuke woke up looking rather pale.
When the mind is in a dream state, its perception of the surrounding environment becomes very weak. Unless the body is touched or injured, it can hardly perceive anything in the outside world.
"Kakashi went to find Obito, let's go out too!"
Rin was worried about Kakashi and Obito, so she wanted to go out. Kyosuke nodded with a grim expression and was about to jump onto the ground when he suddenly stabbed his short sword into the ground and then forcefully flicked it, lifting a puppet ant out of the ground.
"Spiral pills!"
Kyosuke used his right hand to unleash a Rasengan, instantly shattering the puppet into dust.
"Hmm? There's a strong Konoha ninja here. We need to be careful. My puppet ant has been defeated, so I'll have to use the spare puppet."
"Don't worry, as long as they don't discover our location, they have no hope of victory."
"Yes, we still have reinforcements. Even if we can't kill them, holding them off is a victory in itself."
The three puppeteers decided on their tactics, and as soon as Kyosuke and Rin arrived on the ground, they saw Kakashi being chased by a puppet.
"Obito!"
Rin gasped when she saw Obito inside the puppet snake.
Kyosuke was originally planning to use a Rasengan on the Puppet Ants to shatter them, but upon hearing Rin's voice and looking closely, he saw Obito's face inside the Puppet Snake's chest.
"Oh my god, is Obito going to die here? What about Madara?"
Kyosuke had just had this idea when he couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.
Even if Obito is dead, so what? Madara can just find another tool. The Uchiha clan hasn't been wiped out yet. With so many Uchiha clan members, they can always find a suitable one.
"Kyosuke, we must find the puppeteer, or we can't win!"
Upon seeing Kyosuke, Kakashi immediately reminded him, and Kyosuke nodded, forming hand seals.
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
The strong winds whipped up a large amount of sand, creating a sandstorm that obscured the surrounding environment and blocked the puppeteer's view.
Because the battlefield was not clearly visible, the puppeteer's control became problematic.
"A great opportunity! Chidori!"
Kakashi noticed that the puppet snake was a beat too slow, so he immediately rushed forward and used Chidori to destroy the puppet snake's shell from top to bottom, rescuing Obito.
"Rin, protect Obito!"
"Ok!"
Upon discovering that Obito was still alive, Kakashi called Rin over, then grabbed a kunai and charged into the sandstorm.
At that moment, two new puppets appeared in the sandstorm.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Kyosuke created several shadow clones to scout the surroundings, searching for traces of the puppet snake, and then rushed towards the new puppet.
Without Obito as a shield, the puppets, though filled with mechanisms and often employing unpredictable attack methods, quickly gained the upper hand because none of the puppeteers were Jonin, while Kyosuke and Kakashi were strong enough.
"Oh no, my puppet has been destroyed again!"
"I can't hold on much longer, Captain, what should we do?"
"We're too close to them here. Let's retreat first, keep an eye on them from a distance, and fight again when reinforcements arrive."
During battle, puppeteers need to control their puppets to react in a timely manner, so they cannot be too far from the battlefield.
However, if the puppet is only used for surveillance, the puppet does not need to be flexible, and the puppeteer can control it from a distance.
Behind a sand dune, three Sand Ninja shook off the sand from their bodies, stood up, and were about to retreat when they were spotted by one of Kyosuke's shadow clones.
"So this is where it was!"
The shadow clone immediately rushed forward, and the three puppeteers were taken aback, drawing their weapons to fight the shadow clone.
"Spiral pills!"
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Take this!"
Having lost their puppets, the three puppeteers were weak and easily dealt with by the shadow clones once they were brought close.
"The enemy has been dealt with!"
After receiving the information from the shadow clone, Kyosuke and the others relaxed a little, but then they looked at the unconscious Obito and felt a real headache coming on.
"I wonder what kind of poison Obito was poisoned with, what should we do?"
Rin examined Obito's injuries but didn't know how to treat them. Kyosuke and Kakashi weren't medical ninjas either, and they stood by without any good solutions.
"Well, Obito's condition seems relatively stable, and he shouldn't be in any immediate danger. We should be able to find a solution when Minato-sensei returns."
That was all Kyosuke could say to comfort him.
